Abstract

The utility model provides chocolate spraying equipment which can uniformly spray chocolate on the surface of a material to obtain a uniform final product.

Description

Chocolate spraying equipment

Technical Field

The utility model relates to chocolate spraying equipment, and belongs to the technical field of food processing.

Background

For a long time, chocolate is popular with consumers in general due to attractive flavor, smooth mouthfeel and rich nutrition.

Chocolate has very desirable coating properties. Although some dried fruit nut foods on the market have better quality guarantee period after dehydration treatment, if chocolate is adopted to coat and wrap the dried fruit nut foods, the oxidative deterioration of the dried fruit nut foods can be further effectively delayed, and the quality guarantee period of the dried fruit nut foods is greatly prolonged.

The existing chocolate coating devices can be divided into two types, one type is a coating device for directly coating chocolate sauce on the surface of food materials, although the operation is simple and the device is suitable for large-scale mechanical production, the device can only coat most of the area of the food materials, and the bottom of the device can not be coated almost completely; the other type is a polishing machine manufactured by using a polishing principle, although the surface of the whole food material can be polished and coated, the size of the coated and polished food material is different.

Therefore, it is desirable to develop a chocolate spraying device suitable for large-scale mechanical production, which can uniformly spray chocolate on the whole surface of the food material and obtain a uniform size of the final product.

Example 1

As shown in fig. 1, embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a chocolate spraying apparatus mainly including a chocolate holding device 20 and a spraying work device 10.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the spray working device 10 includes a spray pipe 11 extending in a vertical direction, a feed hopper 12 communicating with an upper end portion of the spray pipe 11, and a discharge pipe 13 communicating with a lower end portion of the spray pipe 11 and extending in a horizontal direction.

Preferably, in the present embodiment, a material screen X is disposed between the feeding hopper 12 and the upper end of the spraying pipe 11. After the material (e.g. nut/dried fruit material) falls into the feed hopper 12 and is screened by the material screen, the material with a suitable particle size enters the spraying pipe 11.

In a specific embodiment of the present invention, a first air outlet mechanism 14 for discharging air toward an inner cavity of the spraying pipe 11 is disposed below a connection between the spraying pipe 11 and the discharging pipe 13. Specifically, in this embodiment, the air outlet of the first air outlet mechanism 14 is arranged vertically upward; the first air outlet mechanism 14 is communicated with an output port of the first air blower 16.

In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the other end of the discharge pipe 13 opposite to the discharge port a thereof is provided with a second air outlet mechanism 15 for discharging air towards the inner cavity of the discharge pipe 13. Specifically, in this embodiment, the air outlet of the second air outlet mechanism 15 is arranged toward the discharge hole a along the horizontal direction; the second air outlet mechanism 15 is communicated with an output port of the second air blower 17.

In one embodiment of the utility model, a spraying mechanism for spraying chocolate paste to the inner cavity is arranged in the spraying pipeline 11; the outlet of the chocolate holding device 20 is communicated with the spraying mechanism through a chocolate paste conveying pipeline 30.
